I originally hired Vera to handle my divorce case back in 2008. I was, and am currently, working and living out-of-state, so I needed someone knowledgeable, dependable, and trustworthy to represent me, as I could seldom attend mediations and court appearances in person. Vera did a terrific job of kee...ping me informed and up-to-date on all of the proceedings of my case. I found Vera to be very straightforward and realistic in managing my expectations and in informing me of my options along the way. I very much appreciated Vera's patience in working with me on the payment schedule of her fees, as I was unemployed for a stretch. Even though my divorce was finalized in 2010, Vera is still representing me today in proceedings to amend my child support and alimony obligations, as the children are now adults and have moved on and my employment circumstances have greatly changed. I would absolutely recommend Vera to anyone seeking legal representation in a divorce, and look forward to having her represent me through the conclusion of my case!

I needed Vera to handle a rather messy and complex divorce case involving a house that was upside down and a business that was less than two years old. Vera and her staff did an exceptional job handling the complexities of the case and enabled me to focus on my business without having to worry about... the details. She is very knowledgeable and helped to keep the process moving along. I highly recommend her to anyone who has any family law issues!

If it wasn't for Vera Bergermann my mother would've been cheated out of what she had worked so hard for most of her life. After 21 years of marriage my mother’s husband divorced her without her even knowing it, as she suffers from Alzheimer's. Her husband lied on his financial affidavit and about th...eir assets. He obtained a power of attorney after the divorce and starting selling off all of their assets. Ms. Bergermann was able to put a stop to all of that and reopen the case so that the assets could be properly divided. Ms. Bergermann worked well with the other Attorney to find a resolution without having to going to trial. She was very compassionate and so very helpful. She also put us in contact with an elder care attorney to help us get guardianship of my mother and protect her assets so she can be cared for in the future. I am so grateful we found her! I would gladly use her again and refer her to all my friends and family.

Vera and her awesome staff took me through a difficult 2yr custody battle. My ex hired a very competent and ruthless attorney who pulled no punches. You know, the kind who could make Ghandi look like the bad guy. We kept our values and morals intact and stuck to the truth and the law. Vera is an ...expert on the fine points of the law and a tough fighter in court. Today, I have virtually equal time sharing, a whomping $5 a month support order, summer vacation time for interstate travel, parental decision making over schooling, a great relationship with my daughter and the knowledge that we did it the honest way. One thing I would pass on that I learned is this: part of a bid for custody is ....my ex did this....... The other part is: I'm the right choice because......... From our first meeting, Vera coached me on how to become the person the judge would be looking for so he would be able to give me what I wanted. I believe that the person I presented in court was the reason I did so well in the final result and that person was a direct result of how well Vera understands the system. I would strongly recommend Vera Bergermann to anyone needing a family court attorney.
